A Place Called Glory | The Hell of Manitoba
Title: A Place Called Glory | The Hell of Manitoba | Die Hölle von Manitoba
Medium: Movie
Approximate Length: 90 minutes
Where to Find It: It's currently on free Youtube in it's entirety.
Brief Description: THIS IS THE HOMOEROTIC COFEE SCENE MOVIE! Ahem. It's an old Eurowestern. Our two main characters, free-roaming spirits and excellent gunmen, get entangled in a local feud in a small town. Strangers at the beginning and not easily trusting, they still grow to like each other quickly — not knowing they will end up as opponents.
What You Love About the Canon: Honestly, the main draw of this movie are the two leads. The actors are obviously having a lot of fun with each other and their roles and are a joy to watch. The plot's main concern is setting up scenes for the characters and doesn't want you think too deeply about reasons, which makes the movie a pretty light watch in my opinion, and also gives you a lot of freedom in fic.
What You Love About Your Ship:
The two leads, Brenner and Reese, are so shippy! The movie's climax hinges on the two of them not knowing each other's names and on the audience rooting for their friendship while unsure whether they'd kill each other, so the movie tries to walk the fine line between "They are strangers!" — "Who instantly like each other!" — "But who might not be entirely trustworthy?", which makes for a fun dynamic where a gay explanation makes as much sense as anything else.
Their first meeting is already a very no-heterosexual-explanation moment, with Reese basically going "You make great coffe, btw the last time someone made me great coffee they slept with me, and before we lie down to sleep did I mention you make great coffee? :) :) :)" And the inuenndo-laden coffee compliment even makes just as homoerotic a reprise a bit later.
Brenner has a female love interest, Jade, and funnily enough, the one scene where they are flirting with each other, Reese is also present (of course he is) and the whole scene reads so much like a three-way-flirt. "Why don't you both tell me all about [fun]", really?!?
Kinds of Things You're Planning to Ask For Shippy art and fic for both Brenner/Reese and Brenner/Jade/Reese. I'm not picky since the fandom is almost non-existent.
Content Notes Jade is trapped in a loveless marriage to the villain and there's one scene where he slaps her, but overall the movie is pretty light and ends happily. The whole plot is entirely about white guys in White Vaguewesternlandia, so zero diversity, but on the flipside also zero -isms.
